By the way, it is nice that you could join us, and I hope you have fun. I love shogi, and I've played far more since your son showed interest than I have in the many years since I discovered its existence (1996 I believe). I've had a hard time finding true converts, so this has been a true pleasure for me :)

Thank you. I used to play Shogi many years ago (before the age of the internet). It was a challenge to find people willing to play. This will be my first experience with the 3 player version though. It should prove interesting.
